Whispering Pines on Harrisburg Lake

Wrap yourself in nature, steps away from hiking trails, boating, and fishing. Listen to the wind in the pines, and the loons on the lake. No motor boats or jet skis to disturb the solitude. Take a peek at instagram.com/campthepines

But if you feel the need for speed, the site is a short drive from some of the best white water rafting around and motor boat rentals on Sacandaga Lake. Other nearby activities include a visit to Nettle Meadow Farm, a working farm where you can pet cute goats and buy delicious artisanal cheeses, or enjoy a classic western rodeo at the Painted Pony in Lake Luzerne. You can also book weekend wine or beer tasting tours through us.

After all that "me-time," if you want to connect with the locals over a cold brew or cocktail, take a short walk from the site to the Lodge at Harrisburg Lake. A former post office during the Dude Ranch days of yesteryear, it oozes character... and sometimes live music. Two complimentary drinks included with rental. (COVID-19 update 6/27, the Lodge at Harrisburg Lake bar is open and take out food is available. Call 518-696-4944 for more info.)

Other things included at the site are plates, bowls, utensils, cups, can opener, frying pan, salt and pepper, cooking tongs, dish wash basin, dish soap, paper towels, aluminum foil, fire starter, lots of wood, lanterns, flash light, binoculars, playing cards, smore sticks, and ten gallons of water in refillable jugs. A short walk from the site is a cell phone charging station, fridge (keep those beers cold!), and wifi hotspot.
